A substance floats or sinks in another because of its relative density. Take ice floating in water for example. Water is more dense than ice so ice floats.

Mass is incorrect as the buoyancy or ability of an object to float depends on the mass per volume, which is equivalent to density.

An unknown triprotic acid (H3A) is titrated with NaOH. After the titration Ka1 is determined to be 0.0013 and Ka2 is determined
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

6.68 X 10^-11

Explanation:

From the second Ka, you can calculate pKa = -log (Ka2) = 6.187

The pH at the second equivalence point (8.181) will be the average of pKa2  and pKa3. So,

8.181 = (6.187 + pKa3) / 2

Solving gives pKa3 = 10.175, and Ka3 = 10^-pKa3 = 6.68 X 10^-11
